    Never quit in these situations, or they win.

    Do the absolute fucking minimum you can, or even less so you piss off management, until they have to fire you, which they can’t outright as after a certain number of years they have to give warnings and trainings first.

      I mean, says who? There’s currently only one state in the union that requires cause before you can fire someone. The real issue with firing people is that without a documented cause, that person can collect state unemployment, and the number of people who go on state unemployment from a single company has a financial impact on that company.

      That only works in places with actual worker protection and labor laws, which disqualifies pretty much all of the USA.

      There are many at-will states that can fire you on demand (if done carefully) and there’s nothing you can do about it.

      There are two ways to quit: How management wants you to or because you’re forming a union.

      That’s stupid. Don’t get fired for cause, that only hurts you. Spend your time looking for a new job, then quit and leave ASAP.

        It’s not stupid as you put it. If you know the laws of where you live, it makes perfect sense.
